What Our Students Say

Admissions was wonderful in answering the questions
that I needed answered and made it easy for me to go
back to school after being out for 30 years.—
Sharon, Medical Administration Graduate

I looked into other colleges and I didn't think I'd be
compatible with them. So after I talked with some
counselors at Rasmussen, I felt that I could connect
with them and it would be the best experience for
me.— James, Criminal Justice Graduate

My SUPPORT+ team is a stark contrast to the other
colleges I attended—here, I know they truly care and
want to help me succeed. From financial aid to career
services, they took that walk with me.— Kina,
Healthcare Management Graduate

I went from having no college experience to earning a
Bachelor's degree that helped me land my career and
encouraged me to get a Master's degree.— Dawn,
Healthcare Management Graduate

Meet Bradley

I was working full-time with six
kids at home so I had to find something I could work
into what was going on. I need the job; I need
schooling; I need to take care of the family—and I
found Rasmussen was very flexible.— Bradley,
Information Technology Student

Meet Jordan

I received lower tuition so my
degree is more affordable. It works well with my budget
and is great for someone like me who is going to school
and working full-time.— Jordan, Digital Design
and Animation Student

Meet Stephen

I was a Master at Arms for the
Navy, so I didn't think that experience would transfer
to my accounting degree, but I actually received 13
credits—taking a quarter off my time to
graduation.— Stephen, Accounting Student

Meet Keli

It was really a seamless transition
and a very generous transfer policy. The majority of my
credits were accepted and as a result, I'm on track to
graduate in 18 months.— Keli Manz, AcceleratED
Student

Meet Jeff

Rasmussen College has a great
reputation and we're turning out great nurses. Because
of that reputation, I already have a job and I'm four
weeks to graduation. So, I have one waiting for me,
just to finish. To me, that's the greatest.—
Jeff, Practical Nursing Graduate
